Born in Melton Mowbray, Claude remained there for his entire life and he was given his name in recognition of his godfather Claude Loro who was a patraine Smith to sporting artists and squire of Enderby. Claude's father gave him instruction in painting and his influence is clearly discernible in his son’s work. Claude assisted his father on some paintings occasionally, perhaps more than did his siblings, but this was mainly restricted to working up the backgrounds and John Ferneley issued invoices commensurate with this practice, charging less for the work that his son had undertaken. Because he was so adept at painting in his father’s style, at times he was commissioned to do copies of John’s works, particularly following the latter’s death. Claude was a most accomplished artist in his own right however and at his best was close to achieving the heights attained by his e He only exhibited one painting, of horses, which was at the Royal Academy in 1868 but other examples of paintings by him can be seen at the Leicester Museum and Art Gallery.The British Museum also various stately hoomes and museums SHIPPING Free delivery worldwide Delivery usually within 14 working days, insured please provide telephone/email details for courier.

W. Towler Collection, formerly of Glympton Park, Woodstock, Oxfordshire see details below The artist John Vine was born with a disability that did not appear to interfere with his ability to draw and paint, largely self-taught as an animal painter, as his reputation grew he exhibited at the Society of British Artists in Grosvenor Square. Based at Colchester he painted many different subjects including farms, houses, children and animals. Eric W. Towler was a remarkable man. He was born in 1900 and left school at the age of 12 to work in a Yorkshire pit and through a lifetime of hard work, self-improvement, luck and a refusal to limit his horizons achieved many of his aspirations. As a Yorkshireman through and through, he believed in ‘spending the brass in his pocket’ and over time he was successful enough to acquire enough ‘brass’ to enable his purchase of Glympton Park and furnish it as a traditional country house with all the trappings – in his case collections of...
